Talking Wheels in, now waiting for car

New to the forum world and wanted to post about my exciting new Panamera purchase. I just received my Vorsteiner V-104's and am awaiting the delivery of my new four door Porsche. Dealer says my car should come in sometime mid-Feb. Here are some pics of the wheels, I will post pictures of the car when she gets in. 2011 Aqua Blue Metallic PTT with all the goodies.

Good guess, they are 21's. I've never seen a Panamera in person with 22's and I was afraid they would look too large. From what I've read the Panamera Turbo's sit a bit lower than the naturally aspirated models so hopefully these will fill up the wheel well gap nicely.

Don't forget, it only sits lower when you have the suspension in Sports Plus mode. Welcome to the club!!

Nice...You will love the ride of 21's. I'm running PS2 265/35 and 305/30 and it rides
the same as my 20's on crappy Pirelli's! Would look sick if you put the red Vsteiner center caps

Good to hear, I have the exact same size and type tires.

The red would look great against the red calipers but I have the PCCB's and the yellow against red center caps probably wouldn't do it for me. I'm going to use the OEM Porsche Crest caps for these wheels.

Fronts = 21x9.5 with 265/35 PS2 Tires
Rears = 21x11 with 305/30 PS2 Tires

I've been dealing with Eric at Supreme Power in California and he's taken care of me pretty well. I paid a little under $8K for the package which included the wheels/tires/TPMS sensors/mount/balance and shipping.

The wheels are pretty impressive in person, can't wait to get these mounted on the car.

Stocks are the 20" Turbo II wheels. Not sure what to do with the OEM wheels. It would be nice get some cash for them but I don't want to be stuck with aftermarket wheels when it comes time to sell the car.
